Code Set for IMMIGRANT Close This Window

Definition: defined in section 3301(6) of Title III, refers to individuals who: (A) are aged 3 through 21; (B) were not born in any State; and (C) have not been attending one or more schools in any one or more States for more than 3 full academic years. Because the Title III definition of "State" includes Puerto Rico, students born in Puerto Rico are not "immigrant children and youth" for purposes of either receiving services or for calculating immigrant subgrant allocations. As the Title III definition of "State" does not include the Outlying Areas, as defined in section 9101(30) of the ESEA, students born in the Outlying Areas may be considered "immigrant children and youth" for purposes of receiving services and calculating immigrant subgrant allocations.
